    The time has come to release the Trbojevics

    Hopefully Tommy might work on his agility and movement patterns whist injured… since the guru Knowles finished with our fullback, he hasn’t had the same explosive power and shows in his underwhelming performances. The pec injury could yet be a blessing in disguise… and allow a return to his...

    Jake.! Jake.!! Jaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaake.!!!

    Unfortunately lots of anti-Jake sentiment, but it’s valid criticism. I’d be levelling criticism on the clan for many of the club woes, after all they are the club leaders and should be able to accept fair critique. I love his passion and what he does as a role model and for junior footy, but he...

    The Shane Flanagan Influence

    …another perspective - maybe he takes time to dismantle the dragons defence with his carefully crafted tactics and extra focus on dragons weaknesses which he is now unpacking. Then takes the video to day 1 of dragons pre season training ”here is where we are really at” if manly can rip you guys...

    Samuela Fainu

    For what it’s worth, the contracts for all three brothers was based on potential and a huge amount of goodwill from the club. The unconditional support for the family from the point where criminal charges were laid for the ‘proven‘ NRL brother, all speak to an investment by the club in their...

    Jack Wighton free to negotiate ...

    WIggy wighton would be an excellent 13 in modern game … limited ball playing skills, not smartest cookie but would suit that 13 role and would drag out his career a few years for some extra coin? Not for us, but eels or dolphins …

    [Resurrected] RELEASED WTF? - viliame fifita and alec tuitavake

    Can’t cop the agent is at fault. If it’s my agent, I’m saying thanks for the other offers now get manly across the line, assuming I want to stay. It’s the player who is in charge of their personal affairs… stand up for what you believe in and stop blaming the monster under the bed (Agents)

    The Shane Flanagan Influence

    Everyone assumes Flanno gets an offer to become head coach at the ——— — (insert failed club here) … what if he enjoys the northen beaches and the success in 2023 with group of young kids … Siebold identifies he is suited to an overarching coaching directors role. WIN WIN (Mestrov might be smart...

    Manly in Crisis (a mega thread)

    Tragic eagle - brilliant summation.. Bozo agree with your thoughts. Let’s face it, Des did similar to the dogs… leopard and spots comes to mind. Just send Des to the newly created director of football and he can take a back seat, behind the scenes with a new coach. Question is, who’d work in a...

    [Resurrected] SACK Des Hasler!!

    Eagles brains trust; Do we have any support for Flanagan … coaches defence and gives kids a go + popular with his players… I can’t think of another viable option, but Des the dinosaur is well and truely past it.

    Now we have 17, where do we put the 18th

    PNG and play games out of PNG / Cairns / Darwin… instant success in terms of growth- playing talent, supporter base, memberships, merchandise and action… even if not successful, would be must watch footy and fit PVL-ball

    Good riddance

    Anybody can act like a honourable man during the good times.. they say a man's true character is revealed when they are challenged by adversity. I respect his past commitment to the jersey and playing busted when others may have sat in the dugout. However he will forever be remembered for...

    Contracts...Whats a contract??

    Easy enough to fix the contract/ poaching dramas.. Premier league, for example has a player fee + transfer fee to the club.. - player x gets $650k (lets call him 'knows-whats-best-for-me') Great.. sign your life away.. Poaching club, lets call them 'slimy worms' pays player +...

    Manly Marketing?

    Every club has a distinct culture.. and Manly should market to their strengths.. For the last few years, the sea eagles have been known for their commitment, hard working playing group and never say die attitude. I can remember reading Tommy 'cattle dog' stating Manly were a real football...

    Manly - Storm rematch - in Perth?

    Don't sweat it guys.. after the poor show on the back end of 2011, the storm are officially on the slide and now cannot be considered a marquee game! Eagles winning by 20+ each contest, may as well play in Perth and keep a higher profile contest for Brookie.. a team that'll actually challenge us!

    Judicial Transparency

    Legal counsel withdraws his services after email ping pong fails to uncover the technical information relating to the charges and judicial process. Question; 'does the NRL judicial process lack the integrity required to offer the accused a fair hearing?' As a result is may be denied natural...

    Brookie game talk in Sunday papers today?

    Sydney papers don't promote games or report on footy news.. they focus on scandal and rumours only! You need to be in trouble to earn a write up. Any wonder newspaper circulations are in free fall..

    Sea Eagles confident Hopoate will return

    I would expect Manly are doing their best (in negotiations) to persuade Hoppa to stick around. Can I suggest they structure a package whereby he returns in a development role and continue gods work on behalf of the club. Manly could establish a Northern Beaches charity that Hoppa can be heavily...
